Troika "Cloud" Sculpture

Digital sculpture is fascinating. The effect it has is mesmerizing. It's rhythmic yet dynamic, cold but simultaneously alive. It reminds me of so many dominos: a continuous, reactionary wave flowing over the surface, engulfing and consuming itself and thereby changing its appearance, only to change again in a new way seconds later. Constant evolution and redefinition.

I wish it had been taken to the next level though. I envision the changing surface to be a reflection of its environment at any given time. Adapting the speed, patterns, and mood of its autonomous movement to external factors such as the ambient noise level, lighting conditions, etc.
